Loved and Accepted in Christ

In his book Galatians For You, Timothy Keller says that the gospel is “the message that we are more wicked than we ever dared believe, but more loved and accepted in Christ than we ever dared hope….”[1] Let’s start with the bad news. Few of us truly understand how much our sin offends our holy…

Who is the Antichrist? Part 3 – The character of the Antichrist

We’ve been talking about the future Antichrist and we’ve seen on the basis of Daniel 7 that he will rise to power from within the future revived Roman Empire.

Who is the Antichrist? Part 2 – War against God’s saints and His laws

Who is the Antichrist? And so, in light of that, when we come back to Daniel 7:25, the next thing the angel said this man will do is this: “He shall wear out the saints of the Most High.” In other words, he’s going to wage all-out war against people who are true believers in…
